FXBenchmarkCodeSetint

The source of where to obtain the FX benchmark rate to use for fixing the rate.

The value in this field can be different from RateSource(1446). For example, Bloomberg can be the reference source identified in RateSource(1446), and FXBenchmark(3073) can be central bank - what this says is to use Bloomberg to look up/reference the published central bank rate. Likewise, the BFIX rate for fixing (FXBenchmark(3073)=1 (Bloomberg)) can be sourced from Reuters (RateSource(1446)=1 (Reuters)). If the source for benchmark fixing rate is the same as the reference source (RateSource(1446)), this field, FXBenchmark(3073), can be omitted.
